Put Humans Above Geese

There are geese everywhere. In most places they don’t do any harm, like those who swim in man-made ponds close to homes, or who land and congregate right next to a freeway. But the ones who fly right into jet engines and live close to airports need to be taught they have no business there. You can’t “call them all together” and tell them of the danger. You need to kill enough of them close to airports to give them the lesson that near an airport is NOT the place to be. “Animal lovers” object to any suggestion to kill them, but I think if they present a “clear and present danger” to humans in airplanes, they need to be taught to be elsewhere. Yes, they don’t “bring down” many planes, as they did in New Jersey. But they CAN, and I think we need to be much more concerned about the lives of those humans in those airplanes than about these birds. (Just common sense)
